Nazareth is an earthy, and versatile Scottish rock band that had several hard rock hits, as well as scoring with the Felice and Boudleaux Bryant ballad "Love Hurts" in the 1970s.
Nazareth was formed in 1968 in Dunfermline, Scotland, by vocalist Dan McCafferty, guitarist Manny Charlton, bassist Pete Agnew, and drummer Darrell Sweet. The band moved to London, England in 1970, and released their self-titled debut album in 1971. After getting some attention with their second album Exercises, released in 1972, Nazareth issued Razamanaz in early 1973.
